The district was formed by the Florida Legislature in 1949 to manage the Central and Southern Florida Project, a program created by the U.S. Congress as part of the Flood Control Act (FCA) of 1948). The project had several purposes related to water management: flood control, water conservation, and supply for agricultural and urban use, recreation, navigation, and prevention of saltwater intrusion. To accomplish these goals, the project constructed levees, dikes, and canals throughout Central and South Florida. In 1972, the Florida Water Resources Act divided the state into five water management districts and the Flood Control District became the South Florida Water Management District. Issues discussed in this bulletin include: initiation of the first urban water usage study within the district; hearings held by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers (CoE) to discuss a proposed Water Resources Plan; the adoption of an alligator mascot by the district; the creation of a traveling steamboat display for educational purposes; a synopsis of the proposed Water Resources Plan; a statement from Robert Padrick, chairman of the district, to the CoE; plans to beautify pumping stations; plans to expand recreational boating canals; plans to clean existing dikes; a resolution seeking protection for alligators; and the observation of an increased number of Everglades kites. The bulletin also contains maps of the district and its constructed and proposed canals and levees.TypeTextSourceOriginal 12-page newsletter: <em>Water Management Bulletin</em>, Vol. 1, No. 2, December 1967: binder 1968, Friends of Lake Apopka Archives, Ginn Museum, <a href="http://www.oaktownusa.com/Pages/Preserve/index" target="_blank">Oakland Nature Preserve</a>, Oakland, Florida.Requires<a href="http://www.adobe.com/products/reader.html" target="_blank">Adobe Acrobat Reader</a>Is Part OfBinder 1968, Friends of Lake Apopka Archives, Ginn Museum, <a href="http://www.oaktownusa.com/Pages/Preserve/index" target="_blank">Oakland Nature Preserve</a>, Oakland, Florida.<a href="https://richesmi.cah.ucf.edu/omeka2/collections/show/153" target="_blank">Friends of Lake Apopka Collection</a>, RICHES of Central Florida.Is Format OfDigital reproduction of original 12-page newsletter: <em>Water Management Bulletin</em>, Vol. 1, No. 2, January 1968.CoverageCoral Gables, Florida Lake Okeechobee, Florida Kissimmee River, Florida West Palm Beach, Florida Tampa, Florida Orlando, Florida Miami Beach, Florida Miami, Florida Kissimmee, FloridaPublisher<a href="http://www.sfwmd.gov/portal/page/portal/sfwmdmain/home%20page" target="_blank">Central and Southern Florida Flood Control District</a>Date Createdca. 1968-01Date Issuedca. 1968-01Date Copyrightedca. 1968-01Formatapplication/pdfExtent2.9 MBMedium12-page newsletterLanguageengMediatorHistory Teacher Geography Teacher Science TeacherProvenanceOriginally published by the <a href="http://www.sfwmd.gov/portal/page/portal/sfwmdmain/home%20page" target="_blank">Central and Southern Florida Flood Control District</a>.Rights HolderCopyright to this resource is held by the <a href="http://www.sfwmd.gov/portal/page/portal/sfwmdmain/home%20page" target="_blank">Central and Southern Florida Flood Control District</a> and is provided here by <a href="http://riches.cah.ucf.edu/" target="_blank">RICHES of Central Florida</a> for educational purposes only.Accrual MethodDonationContributing Project<a href="http://www.fola.org/" target="_blank">Friends of Lake Apopka</a>CuratorKing, JoshuaDigital Collection<a href="https://richesmi.cah.ucf.edu/map/" target="_blank">RICHES MI</a>Source Repository<a href="http://www.oaktownusa.com/Pages/Preserve/index" target="_blank">Oakland Nature Preserve</a>External Reference"<a href="http://www.sfwmd.gov/portal/page/portal/xweb%20about%20us/history1" target="_blank">History</a>."
